Syntax
public sealed class Alias : ICloneable
Remarks

The class can be used in two ways. In an aggregation with only the string-member used, or as an ordinary alias on a field in the returnfieldscollection, with both field-member and string-member used.

If alias is going to be used on e.g. an mathematical operation SELECT ( firstname + ' ' + lastname ) AS PersonName the alias must be set on the mathematical operation, not the fieldinfo(s) the operation is working on.

To avoid potential problems with special characters on the different databases, we accept only alias with characters in range A-Z and 0-9. Oracle does not allow underscore (_) in front of an alias, so we also validate that.

Since we use T0...Tx as auto-generated table-aliases, we validate the alias against this pattern.
